As a first-time English teacher, first-time language learner, and first-time solo world traveler, I am in a period of great transition in my life. I have redefined my goals in the past few months, and I hope that my experience in Korea will be only the first of many in a life of world travel. While traveling, I want to fully immerse myself in foreign cultures, which will require learning the local languages. My immediate goal is to learn Korean as it is my first destination. I am open to all future friends who would like to converse in Korean!
